long wait...
ordered my IPF S/C at the beginning of December(I expected some delay by doing so), and now im still waiting for it to be shipped, first I was told the end of january, then the end of february, then the 2nd week of march, then the 3rd.... well its the third week now and I tried to email them end of last week to see what the hold up is and I have yet to receive a response. I'm not putting anyone on blast here, I'm just wondering if anyone else on here has had to wait this long for theirs? was your experience like mine at all?

Yes unfortunately everyone has had to wait. We are currently building 20 kits, we thought they would be completed by this week. I have not personally received any emails from you or I would have answered them, my contact info is below. We were not accepting any orders in December the product was on hold until the end of January when we started accepting orders. Unless you ordered from a 3rd party distributor. Out of the 20 kits we are building all but one is pre-sold.
We apologize for any delays, but please remember this is not a mass produced oversea's made product. We take pride in our product and only build in small batches which is why the process is long. Please be patient, the best we can do is relay information along as we receive it. There were some manufacturing speed bumps for a couple months which put us behind schedule and on back order for a few months, some of this has been covered in other threads. Once again we apologize for any inconvenience. We do not have a definitive shipping date, but we are in full production and kits will be shipping in less than a month. Once the shipping information becomes available we will share it with you. I may be contacted directly @ andy@kpe-products.com Thank you |

I understand the frustration but you will be pleased once you get the IPF SC installed. It is really worth the wait !!!!

Even with all of the custom requests, I didn't have to wait this long. I have IPF's original aluminum R&D pipes which I had media blasted and powder coated. I also had the mounting bracket and MAF tube shipped unfinished so those could be powder coated. The factory-look black is cool though. I think you'll be happy with your set up once you get it and it's installed.

+1 more, hang in there wutshot- Andy will take care of you.
Despite having the flu, he spent close to an hour on the phone with me patiently going over the correct use of my IPF tuner and making sure it was all set to go. Be prepared for possibly a few growing pains during/after install too. But I've had my car "good to go" for about 10mos. now, and I couldn't be more pleased with it. I get excited every time I get to drive it! |

Lol yea it's been a wait, but I'm sure I will be taken care of I trust the folks there at IPF, I've just never ordered a supercharger for a vehicle before, I wasn't sure if this was a normal wait time. What kind of numbers are you pulling with it Ventmaster?
